rust: clean Rust 1.88.0's `clippy::uninlined_format_args` lint

2025-05-18T06:24:57+00:00

commit 211dcf77856db64c73e0c3b9ce0c624ec855daca upstream.

Starting with Rust 1.88.0 (expected 2025-06-26) [1], `rustc` may move
back the `uninlined_format_args` to `style` from `pedantic` (it was
there waiting for rust-analyzer suppotr), and thus we will start to see
lints like:

    warning: variables can be used directly in the `format!` string
       --> rust/macros/kunit.rs:105:37
        |
    105 |         let kunit_wrapper_fn_name = format!("kunit_rust_wrapper_{}", test);
        |                                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        |
        = help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#uninlined_format_args
    help: change this to
        |
    105 -         let kunit_wrapper_fn_name = format!("kunit_rust_wrapper_{}", test);
    105 +         let kunit_wrapper_fn_name = format!("kunit_rust_wrapper_{test}");

There is even a case that is a pure removal:

    warning: variables can be used directly in the `format!` string
      --> rust/macros/module.rs:51:13
       |
    51 |             format!("{field}={content}\0", field = field, content = content)
       |             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
       |
       = help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#uninlined_format_args
    help: change this to
       |
    51 -             format!("{field}={content}\0", field = field, content = content)
    51 +             format!("{field}={content}\0")

The lints all seem like nice cleanups, thus just apply them.

We may want to disable `allow-mixed-uninlined-format-args` in the future.

rust: use custom FFI integer types

2025-03-13T12:01:49+00:00

commit d072acda4862f095ec9056979b654cc06a22cc68 upstream.

Currently FFI integer types are defined in libcore. This commit creates
the `ffi` crate and asks bindgen to use that crate for FFI integer types
instead of `core::ffi`.

This commit is preparatory and no type changes are made in this commit
yet.

rust: str: test: replace `alloc::format`

2025-03-13T12:01:47+00:00

commit eb6f92cd3f755c179204ea1f933b07cf992892fd upstream.

The current implementation of tests in str.rs use `format!` to format
strings for comparison, which, internally, creates a new `String`.

In order to prepare for getting rid of Rust's alloc crate, we have to
cut this dependency. Instead, implement `format!` for `CString`.

Note that for userspace tests, `Kmalloc`, which is backing `CString`'s
memory, is just a type alias to `Cmalloc`.

rust: enable `clippy::undocumented_unsafe_blocks` lint

2025-03-13T12:01:41+00:00

commit db4f72c904cb116e2bf56afdd67fc5167a607a7b upstream.

Checking that we are not missing any `// SAFETY` comments in our `unsafe`
blocks is something we have wanted to do for a long time, as well as
cleaning up the remaining cases that were not documented [1].

Back when Rust for Linux started, this was something that could have
been done via a script, like Rust's `tidy`. Soon after, in Rust 1.58.0,
Clippy implemented the `undocumented_unsafe_blocks` lint [2].

Even though the lint has a few false positives, e.g. in some cases where
attributes appear between the comment and the `unsafe` block [3], there
are workarounds and the lint seems quite usable already.

Thus enable the lint now.

We still have a few cases to clean up, so just allow those for the moment
by writing a `TODO` comment -- some of those may be good candidates for
new contributors.

rust: kernel: remove redundant imports

2024-05-05T17:22:25+00:00

Rust's `unused_imports` lint covers both unused and redundant imports.
In the upcoming 1.78.0, the lint detects more cases of redundant imports
[1], e.g.:

    error: the item `bindings` is imported redundantly
      --> rust/kernel/print.rs:38:9
       |
    38 |     use crate::bindings;
       |         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ the item `bindings` is already defined by prelude

Most cases are `use crate::bindings`, plus a few other items like `Box`.
Thus clean them up.

Note that, in the `bindings` case, the message "defined by prelude"
above means the extern prelude, i.e. the `--extern` flags we pass.

rust: kernel: remove usage of `allocator_api` unstable feature

2024-04-16T20:50:04+00:00

With the adoption of `BoxExt` and `VecExt`, we don't need the functions
provided by this feature (namely the methods prefixed with `try_` and
different allocator per collection instance).

We do need `AllocError`, but we define our own as it is a trivial empty
struct.

2024-04-16T20:50:04+00:00

We also rename the methods by removing the `try_` prefix since the names
are available due to our usage of the `no_global_oom_handling` config
when building the `alloc` crate.

rust: str: add {make,to}_{upper,lower}case() to CString

2024-04-02T15:41:56+00:00

Add functions to convert a CString to upper- / lowercase, either
in-place or by creating a copy of the original CString.

Naming follows the one from the Rust stdlib, where functions starting
with 'to' create a copy and functions starting with 'make' perform an
in-place conversion.

This is required by the Nova project (GSP only Rust successor of
Nouveau) to convert stringified enum values (representing different GPU
chipsets) to strings in order to generate the corresponding firmware
paths. See also [1].
